I just talked to my buddy (Nautique dealer) and he said that boat was the premier wakeboard machine prior to the 230. The team edition comes with ballast tanks so that's good. Not sure if it would be a great slalom boat (probably not) but it a nice wakeboard boat for sure. He mentioned it's a bit under-powered with the 330 hp engine, 6 liter is the best choice. Test drive first?

Prior to the g23, wasn't the 210 always the premier wake boat? I have several friends with different 210s (2001, 2003, 2005, 2008, and 2009) and those wake are hard to beat. I've never ridden behind a 230, but always heard it takes a lot of weight and has a very finicky wake. Both hull versions of the 210 will take pretty much any amount of weight you can get in them and still plane out and throw huge clean wakes.

I am on my second 210 hull. I first had a 99 Super Air 210 and now I have an 04 Super Air 210. Hands down the best wake for the money and it still continues to rival wakes of today's boats. I don't know about the 07 and up 210's though. The hull you want is the 96ish-2006 210.

The 07 and up hull is great too. The wake isn't as steep as the older hull, but it has a lot more transition and is big and clean with additional ballast. It definitely needs more weight than the older hulls, but it's a much bigger boat with a lot more running surface.

What a surprise . I read this thread expecting Nautique to get slammed . All the posts so far have been fair to both brands. I own a Nautique and Supra I stopped posting here because of all the brand bashing. I'm glad to see that things seems to have changed. I always thought the MC brand was top notch. The fact that MC likes to promote their models by putting down the others has always been my biggest turn off with them. I hope this is the way they are going in the future.
